There are four editions of MT 2K21 this past year. There's a Standard Edition and Mamba Forever Edition which go along with the present generation consoles. Each edition features its own unique cover. Damian Lillard will grace the Standard Edition on the present generation while Zion Williamson is showcased on the normal Edition of this next-gen version. Kobe Bryant is featured on both Mamba Forever Edition covers.

There's good news and bad news for people who want to upgrade NBA 2K in the current generation to another generation. The good news is it's potential to do so without having to buy the game twice. The good thing is it's not possible if you get the normal Edition. If you want to upgrade NBA 2K21 from the current generation to the next creation, you must buy the Mamba Forever Edition.

Additionally, it is worth pointing out you can only upgrade to next gen if you stay inside the console family (PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5 or Xbox one to Xbox collection X). You will also obtain the Zion Williamson Digital Collection at no extra cost as soon as you update to the next gen version of the game. This deal is available through both physical copies of the game and digital copies.

Some added bad news is the MyPLAYER Inventory and advancement will not move in the next-gen switch.You can find more information regarding the next gen change on NBA 2K's website.One rumored characteristic, however, is your ability to create a female player for MyCareer. We saw the coming of the WNBA in Buy 2K21 MT, but fans were angry there wasn't an ability to further the women's game into MyCareer. NBA 2K has not confirmed this rumor, but did hint at more for WNBA fans.
